Three San Diego Beauty Academies Cooperate to Form Nail Technician Program

Poway, Je Boutique, and Bay Vista academies are launching the nation’s first Spa Nail Technician program. The schools worked closely with Janet McCormick, manicurist and estethician, and author of “Spa Manicuring for Salons and Spas,” and Doug Schoon, former vice president of science and technology for CND, to develop a comprehensive 600-hour training program. The program contains advanced manicuring and pedicuring training techniques so that graduates can quickly gain work in the spa industry as “spa manicurists.”
